The Marsyas Trio (flute, cello, piano) celebrate their 10th anniversary with music by British and American women composers. The programme showcases a work written when women weren't allowed to be professional musicians, another composed the year after American women got the vote, and two pieces written and arranged for the Marsyas Trio.
The Marsyas Trio has forged a place as a dynamic and innovative group, inspiring a generation of new works for their genre through their commissioning work, as well as bringing lost and forgotten repertoire to the public. This North American tour is part of the international promotion of their latest CD ‘In the Theatre of Air’ released on NMC Recordings. The album debuted at No. 7 in the Classical Charts and was critically acclaimed by Gramophone and BBC Music Magazine and has received international airplay.
